Why read it?

1 author picked The Strength of Love as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Kate Garraway, one of the United Kingdom's leading television presenters, has suffered hugely during the Covid pandemic, owing to the fact that her middle-aged husband Derek Draper became extremely unwell and spent months and months in hospital. In this unbelievably frank and truly touching book, the author has explained how she and her family have had to cope with this deeply heartbreaking family trauma. Every single reader will be hugely impressed by Ms. Garraway's unbelievably inspiring emotional fortitude, and I believe that we all have a very great deal to learn from this extraordinary human being.
